Challenge Title: Social Media Engagement Analysis
Objective:
Conduct a data analysis to gain insights into social media engagement based on a provided dataset.
Dataset:
You can use a hypothetical dataset or provide a link to a real dataset related to social media engagement. The dataset should include variables such as post date, likes, comments, shares, and possibly user demographics.
Tasks:

7. Data Visualization:
- Create visualizations (e.g., line charts, bar graphs) to effectively communicate your findings.
- Provide insights through storytelling with the help of visualizations.
Submission Guidelines:
- Participants should submit their analysis along with visualizations and key insights.
- Encourage participants to share their code if they used tools like Python, R, or any other data analysis tool.
Prizes (if applicable):
Consider offering small prizes or shoutouts for the most insightful analysis, creative visualizations, or any other criteria you find relevant.
This challenge aims to improve participants' data analysis skills while providing valuable insights into social media engagement patterns. Feel free to adapt the challenge based on your audience's preferences and the data you have available.
